Mongolia has two Independence Day celebrations.
In 1920 the Russians invaded Mongolia and liberated them from occupation by the newly formed Republic of China. To eliminate any future Chinese threat from the Russian border, it was decided to install an independent communist Mongolian government on 11th July 1921. This is now celebrated by the Naadam festival, 11th to 13th July each year. This is the biggest festival in Mongolia, at which, contestants participate in the three manly sports of Wrestling, archery and horse riding.
The official public holiday known as 'independence day' is held on November 26th and marks the creation of the Mongolian constitution on that date in 1924. The constitution created the Mongolian People's Republic. In 1992 a new constitution was established and the 'People's Republic' was dropped from the name. However this day is still celebrated as a reminder of life under the shadow of the Soviet Union.
